Psalms 148

1 Praise ye the LORD. Praise ye the LORD from the heavens: praise him in the heights.

alleluia laudate Dominum de caelis laudate eum in excelsis

2 Praise ye him, all his angels: praise ye him, all his host.

laudate eum omnes angeli eius laudate eum omnes virtutes eius

3 Praise ye him, sun and moon; praise him, all ye stars of light.

laudate eum sol et luna laudate eum omnes stellae et lumen

4 Praise him, ye heavens of heavens, and ye waters that be above the heavens.

laudate eum caeli caelorum et aqua quae super caelum est

5 Let them praise the name of the LORD: for he commanded, and they were created.

laudent nomen Domini quia ipse dixit et facta sunt ipse mandavit et creata sunt

6 He hath also stablished them for ever and ever: he hath made a decree which shall not pass away.

statuit ea in saeculum et in saeculum saeculi praeceptum posuit et non praeteribit

7 Praise the LORD from the earth, ye dragons, and all deeps:

laudate Dominum de terra dracones et omnes abyssi

8 Fire and hail, snow and vapour; stormy wind, fulfilling his word:

ignis grando nix glacies spiritus procellarum quae faciunt verbum eius

9 Mountains and all hills; fruitful trees and all cedars:

montes et omnes colles ligna fructifera et omnes cedri

10 Beasts and all cattle; creeping things and flying fowl:

bestiae et universa pecora serpentes et volucres pinnatae

11 Kings of the earth and all peoples; princes and all judges of the earth:

reges terrae et omnes populi principes et omnes iudices terrae

12 Both young men and maidens; old men and children:

iuvenes et virgines senes cum iunioribus laudent nomen Domini

13 Let them praise the name of the LORD; for his name alone is exalted: his glory is above the earth and heaven.

quia exaltatum est nomen eius solius

14 And he hath lifted up the horn of his people, the praise of all his saints; even of the children of Israel, a people near unto him. Praise ye the LORD.

confessio eius super caelum et terram et exaltabit cornu populi sui hymnus omnibus sanctis eius filiis Israhel populo adpropinquanti sibi
